When in Houston last weekend running the National Tour my car broke during friday test n' tune. The pivot on for the tensioner chain guide on bank 1 broke, Talking to Mark Jorgenson, a fellow Mustang racer in ESP, he said that there have been alot of talk on the forums about how un-reliable these motors have been for racing. This is the first problem I have had with the motor since it was replaced 20k miles ago, the first motor locked up from oil starvation at high rpm because of an oil pan dent blocking the pick-up!
Bottom line my question is should I continue running the car! All I do is Auto-X the car and since this problem I have been getting critisium from my parents and freinds about racing the only source of transportation I have, when I see that other people doing the same thing seem to make out just fine with no problems. Its kinda frustration seeing that people yell and scream at you for doing something that you enjoy like it is a bad thing!
